CoLuMHus, O., Oct. 25.-Thc ~iralousics
which have existed between Governor
Foraker and Senator Sherman, growing
out Of tho aspirations of each to II place on
the National Republican ticket, bid fair
now TO break out In open hostility.
Nothing but policy on the Part Of each
will prevent ii. Each is conscious Of the
others power TO crush the hopes of both,
If he so desires, and each knows how dcs.
pcrate the other is. The adoption of the
resolution endorsing Mr.. Sherman rs Ohio's
choice for the Presidency, which was dorc
by the Republican State Convention at
Toledo, and TO which the Foraker men
gracefully submitted, instead of ending II
quarrel between party leaders, was really
the entering wedge which threatens to
badly split the Republican forces in this
campaign.
The election of Foraker and the loss %
the Rel ub!iCans Of the State Legislature
would iii Mr.. Foraker OF Mr.. Sherman as
a rival Tor Il place on the national ticket.
That Is easy To sec. it would give the
young Governor special prominence and
deprive The Senator of that lever he relies
so much upon To raise himself into notice
IA legislative resolution from his own
State. The State Committee is Il Foraker
committee decidedly. It's chairman is tie
Governors a%ppointcc as Railroad Commits.
Sioncr, and its chief secretary his appoinlcc
rs State Librarian. 1t is natural, there
fore, that this committee should manage
things in the interest OF Mr.. Foraker.
In his speech Mt B%elfontainc last week
Senator sherman laid special emphasis on
the statement TINT the main object in this
campaign was the election of a~f&cpublican
General Assembly. This ignoring Of Mr..
Forakcr resulted in u conclavc here of
!cANlng Foraker and Sherman men, the re.
suit ot which seems to be that the State
Republican Committee is paying a little
more attention to the General Assembly
elections and dcvotiug its time less cXclu.
sivcly 10 tie election 0, Mr.. Foraker.

One Lived. Tie Other Died,

a woTauu formerly our slave is O
our cook. About eighteen months ago
she became sickly and had a cough and
was confined to bed, and it was thought
that she had consumption. The treat
ment by physicians failed to give relief.
In December, 1854, a node or knot the
size OF Il goose egg formed Just above
he pit Of tho stomach, which, when
lanccd, discharged matter for eight OF
nine months. One OF these also formed
under her arm, and three on her back,
which discharged matter for n consider
able time. For six months of this time
sho confined to tho house, and most Of
the time in bed. The stomach often re-
fused food, by rejecting what sho had
eaten. She used n great deal of mcdi-
cine, but failed to be cured. ] bought
one bottle OF your b.. Ii. b. (made in
Atlanta, Gao and gave it to her and She
commenced TO improve. L then bought
and gave her three bottles more, and She
continued to improve, and in two
months time her cough had ceased, her
constitution strengthened, appetite and
digestion good, all discharges ceased,
nodes or Knots disappeared and she went
to work apparently healthy and fatt>acd
up greatly.
This woman had a married sister OF

THE PUBLIC DEBr.
"A very Rapid Increase Umder DE.
creasin= Circumstances.

cFeaStnE circumstances.
The assumed rapid decrease Of the pub
TIC debt OF the United States, as shown in
the statements pu blshed, has seemed
very marvellous to foreigners. The ex-
perence of other nations with their prb.
lie debts leads them to doubt the state
ments of this country. Most of them
have continually increasing instead of de-
creasing national debts.
How then, they ask, can the United
States diminish its debt 50 rapidly?
The prosperity of the people during all
these years has been unabated. In fact
the country has never seen such an era of
general prosperity. The two conditions
appear 20 ''e contradictory.
Are the statements true:
In ol" srnse they are undoubtedly cor
rect, but the public debt has largely in
creased since the war 1t has accumu-
lated To the great inventors and discov-
erers whose successful efforts have eased
tie burdens Of labor and made pleasant
the pathways Of toll.
y grateful public should also acknowl-
edge its indebtedness to those who have
promoted health and happiness. The
proprietors of Warmers safe cure have
given to the public a specific for all kid
ney disorders, and the innumerable train
of frghttui diseases that are caused by
them. The late public teacher, DR.. Dio
Lewis, who seldom prescribed medicines
of any sort, gave to this renowned spe-
citic his warm commentator, and said if
he found himself suffering from any kid
nev disorder he should use it. Kidney
disorders are the cause of 93 per cent. say
the proprietors Of that remedy, Of all dis
eases. If you keep the kidneys in health,
You have the greatest assurance of free
dom from all diseases.
Before the discovery of this remedy,
briyht's disease was deemed ncurable.
Now the number Of victims of the dread
kidney diseases, and all others caused by
such diseases, who are by it snatched
from death constantly increases, and as
the efficacy of the remedy becomes more
widely known those who have reason to
be dcvontly thankful that this wonderful
specific has been made known to the
world, multiply with rapidly increasing
ratio

We clip the following from the
NOrthCe8tern LUmberman, not as an
item of news to our mill men but
nore to corroborate what we have heard
some of them say upon the subject;
A New Orleans lumbeTmaD, who
called recently, said that water sea-
soning for yellow pine logs was the
best treatment possible, provided the
lumber cut from the logs was to be
used in the manufacture of doors,
blinds, etc. Some of the logs belong
ing to the gentleman are put IN the
water, and it is necessary sometimes
that they remain there for a long time.
In the manufacture of doors and other
articles, he observed there was A great
difference in the glue holding ability
of fbe lumber, and on investigation he
discovered that the lumber cut from
the logs which had been water sea.
soned was the kind that held glue
best. lie now makes it a point to use
such lumber for manufactured articles.
The logs, be thinks, should lie in the
water about eighteen months. A
knowledge of the methods Of the New
Orleans manufacturer may be of value
to some; the idea, however, is not a
new one. There are cabinet makers
who, in preparing lumber for special
purposes, submerge it for awhile.
